Guest guest Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 Hello Yaks! I just wanted to remind everyone that if you have rec'd an invitation to join a group called USASillyYaks... it is NOT from me. I have no affiliation with that site. I have had quite a few of you email me personally over the last 2 days asking me about that site. I hope I have clarified in my past few message board posts about that. If you still have further questions or are confused, just let me know or zap me an email. Rest assured, our SillyYaks membership " list " cannot be viewed by anyone except for moderators (which includes myself and one other trustworthy person). However, if you make a message post to the SillyYaks board, your email address is revealed. So, I am guessing that one of our " new " members has joined us under another name and/or email address and may be trying to gather email addresses from our board. This is not fact, but what I suspect. However, I have no way of determining that. The only solution is to restrict this board to people I personally know, and I do not want to do that at this time.... as we have almost 1,500 members from all around the world... most of whom are helpful and contribute to make this group such a success. If anyone has any particular ideas or a " cure " for this problem, let me know....it would be greatly appreciated. Melonie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 Hi Doreen, You can certainly be a member of as many groups as you'd like. I am also a member of several other groups as well.
